[Intro]

Well, yeah

Forever, forever, forever chasing forever

Forever, forever, forever, forever, forever, forever

Forever chasing forever


[Verse 1]

Early mornin' wake up

Gently with the caress on your hand

And that kimono that I bought you on my trip to Japan

Sunshine peekin' through the venetian blinds

Four years, and like wine, you got finer with time

I got a question: if the Prada dressin' and the Gucci

All got ghost, and a freeze on the lucci

I mean real bad girl, I'm talking rougher than rough

Do you think it'd be enough if we just had us?

Don't answer quick, think about it 'cause I'm askin' for real

Golddiggers gon' hear this song drivin' and crash at the wheel

Forever is a long time, so far we gettin' along fine

No car I ever drove, no ice I ever saw

No music I ever made, ain't nothin' I wanted more

We could deal with whatever together

Sunshine or that other weather, when we chasin' forever, uh


[Chorus: Kenny Greene & Trey Lorenz]

I wanna stay with you forever

(Forever, forever, forever)

I wanna spend all my life with only you

(Forever chasing forever)

I wanna stay, let's stay together

(Lets stay together, forever, forever)

Chasing forever, with only you

(Forever chasing forever)


[Verse 2]

Chasin' forever, a buckwild endeavorous scene

Are we pursuin' somethin real or just chasin' a dream

Or casin' the scene, 'fore I die, I plan

To see your soul and eternity in the palm of my hands

Now as a man, there's certain things I'm lackin' for sure

But I'm committed to growin' and coming at you mature

In the future, I know it ain't gonna be all good

But when we feelin' the hurt, if we willin' to work

The eight ball will never turn to see us behind

Though I ain't no knight and my armor don't shine

My mom said the lynchpin of love is trust

And taught me monogamy is a monoga-must

Plus, for you dinner by candlelight

Now don't commit before you sure you understand me right

It's a race to a strange place, most see never

It's a chase we gots to make together, forever


[Chorus: Kenny Greene & Trey Lorenz]

I wanna stay with you forever

(Forever, forever, forever)

I wanna spend all my life with only you

(Forever chasing forever)

I wanna stay, let's stay together

(Lets stay together, forever, forever)

Chasing forever, with only you

(Forever chasing forever)


[Verse 3]

Now you would think after all my heartbreaks, I'd be cruel

Hiding behind my ego, evil but no

Much the contrary, I'm very much certain

You searching for joy, it's on the other side of hurtin'

Finally found a person, worthy of all

Instead of pushing me down, you wanna cushion my fall

Your eyes could make the sun rise, all the birds sing

Seal it with a kiss, bind it with a ring

More carats than even bugs could eat in a week

And the ribbon in the sky, close your eyes, don't peek

I'll tell you what I see in the future

A hacienda so cute with, five little kids calling you mom and calling me dad

Having more good times than JJ had

Judging by the look in your eyes, you see it

Let no man sever, welcome to forever


[Outro]

I wanna stay with you forever

(Forever, Forever, forever)

I wanna spend all my life with only you

(Each and every day forever chasing forever)

I wanna stay, lets stay together

(Forever, forever together)

Chasing forever, with only you

(Forever chasing forever)

I wanna stay with you forever

(Forever, Forever, forever)

I wanna spend all my life with only you

(Forever chasing forever, only you)

I wanna stay, lets stay together

(Forever, forever together don't you go nowhere)

Chasing forever, with only you

(Forever chasing forever)

Stay forever

(Forever, forever)

Each and every day

(Forever chasing forever)

Forever, forever, forever

With only you

(Forever chasing forever)
